for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide what constitutes a list. The duties are many sentences; could be turned into list items. The responsibilities list includes many statements each starting with a verb. We can make each a
- . Similarly, minimum qualifications could be list items. Preferred qualifications maybe list.
Skills and Abilities also list.
Physical requirements and working environment could be prose or list; but they are paragraphs. We'll use
.
Schedule: we can put as
or list; it's a few items.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include each duty statement exactly as given? We can keep the wording but maybe break into list items; that's okay as it's preserving content.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now craft HTML.
Sections:
- About the role: prose from first paragraph(s) describing role.
- Responsibilities: list of core duties and responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe combine Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications? Could split into Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). But we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed. We'll put Minimum Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications.
- Skills: Skills And Abilities.
- Schedule: schedule info.
We might also include Physical Requirements and Working Environment as separate sections? Not in allowed headings list. Could fold into Requirements or Qualifications? But they are not exactly requirements/qualifications. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could incorporate physical requirements and working environment into Requirements section as additional list items? But they are not requirements per se but job demands. Might be okay to put under Requirements as "Physical Requirements" and "Working Environment" as subpoints? But we must not create new headings not in list. Could embed as
inside Requirements section.
Better: Keep Requirements section for minimum qualifications, Qualifications for preferred, Skills for skills, Schedule for schedule. And we can add a section for "About the role". Physical requirements and working environment could be placed under Requirements as additional prose? But they'd be missing if we omit. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. So we must include them somewhere. We could add a section "Requirements" and include subheadings? Not allowed. Could add a
inside Requirements that includes physical requirements and working environment paragraphs. That would preserve them.
Thus Requirements section will contain:
- Minimum qualifications (education, certification, experience) as list.
- Physical requirements paragraph.
- Working environment paragraph.
That seems okay.
Qualifications section will contain preferred qualification (BSN) maybe as list.
Skills section will contain Skills And Abilities list.
Schedule section will contain schedule info.
Now craft.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Equal Opportunity Employer" etc. Remove.
Let's extract exact text.
About the role paragraph:

Heavy/Hard work: Work requires strength and/or stamina, lifting, moving, stooping, reaching, standing, walking, and carrying of materials and equipment weighing 40+lbs. Visual acuity must be within normal range. Hearing within normal range is required (i.e. to assess breath sounds, bowel sounds, apical pulse, monitors, etc.)"

Also CAPE program description maybe could be included under Skills or Qualifications? It's about clinical advancement program. It's substantive. Could be placed under Qualifications as additional list items? But we have no heading for it; we could incorporate into Qualifications as a paragraph. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Adding a separate section for CAPE would be thin; better to include under Qualifications or Skills as a paragraph.
We'll add a paragraph under Qualifications describing CAPE program.
But we must preserve all substantive information; we can include it as a
inside Qualifications.
Let's extract CAPE program text:
"The CAPE program is a system-wide clinical advancement program (clinical ladder) to enhance professional development, provide a reward system for quality clinical performance, promote quality nursing, and improve job satisfaction for inpatient direct care nurses. To apply for the next level, the CAPE nurse must meet the requirements of their current level.
